Our story

One family, more than a century

What began on a family hog farm more than a century ago is still family owned and run, rooted in old-fashioned professionalism and service.

  1. 1913

    It starts with a wagon

    Grandpa Varus Kardashian collects garbage to recycle as feed for his hog farm.

    A real fleet

    Trucks replace horses, and the business grows across the Westside.
